Follow the leader
Is there really enough limelight to share with Rocky? We’re about to find out. Out of the A$AP camp (and with a mob of accomplices), comes Ferg with “Work.” A well-known cliché yes, but one that never grows tired.

I’m sure you’ve heard your fair share of “Suit and Tie” remixes, or maybe you shunned the original before you gave it a fair listen. (Hater, I’m talking to myself). But even the staunchest opponents will let their guard down when JT’s vocals are mixed with Marvin’s “Let’s Get It On.”
